Full-Time

Backend developer (Elasticsearch, Ruby on Rails)

At BuzzSumo, we have a simple goal: to provide social insights into what content is resonating with their audience. We run extensive crawlers that crawl the entire web 24/7, storing terabytes of data that need to be indexed, processed and queried. Our SaaS product is used by over 3400 customers, ranging from publishers like BuzzFeed to Fortune 500 brands like Disney.

We are looking for a backend engineer with experience in distributed systems, Elasticsearch and Ruby, who have a desire to take on new engineering challenges. This is a remote role.

What you'll be doing:

- Build new backend features for the BuzzSumo platform using Ruby as our main programming language.

- Fix production issues in a timely manner

- Identify bottlenecks and potentially refactor any code or architecture.
